Very weird. All of a sudden, my mouse stops working, light even goes out.
I switch ports, it works again until it doesn't.

Thoughts...??

If you are switching ports and it is continuing to work then stop, something inside the mouse is shorting out. Have you tried reinstalling the drivers or updating them? If it does the same after reinstalling/updating drivers I would say it is dying. Try it in another machine, if the problem follows you definitely know you have a mouse going south for the winter.

That means the cables are fraying inside the casing.

Nah, everythings brand new...

Oh, shoot, you meant inside the cable casing, not the case itself, my bad.

Yea, that could well be, the mouse is about the only thing not recently replaced...

Loose cable maybe? Either shorting out or just losing contact. Not sure how possible this is, but if you can get to where the cable actually connects inside of the mouse, might try securing it with something... ...I'd probably use epoxy adhesive or something similar. Probably open it up, plug it in and confirm it first. If it's loose, put the epoxy on, position it so it works and for gods sake don't move it until the epoxy cures after that. Wouldn't want it to cure in a position where it always shorts!

I think @natron has it. Not impossible to fix, but not ideal either. Best fix is just to desolder it, cut back to fresh wire, and resolder it and add some heat shrink or something for strain relief so it doesn't happen again. You could try my fix, but if the wires are fraying the connection is already too compromised. All you can do is resolder... ...or maybe try to strip the wire around the frayed parts and just tin them with solder and put some liquid electrical tape on as an insulator.

Of course, you could always just forget about it and buy a new mouse, hah. Chances are its completely fixable, but I think most people just wouldn't bother. Personally I'd try to fix it, but I'm not normal!

EDIT: Well if it's new... ...can you just RMA it? Maybe the mouse is just no good. Shouldn't be doing that fresh out of the package.

I wonder if it's a problem with the ports... ...I recall an old machine where things would drop out if I moved the cable too much. They just had a lot of wiggle to them - too much movement and contact would break just long enough to force a d/c.

Sucks, but what are you gonna do? Happens sometimes.

If its any consolation, I've done more new builds where I had to return something than builds where everything just worked. Even on the high end, they really don't make stuff like they used to.

I'm using a mouse right now that randomly acts up like that. And by randomly I mean it does it for like a week. Then doesn't do it for several months. Then does it again for a day or 2. Then doesn't do it for 3-4 years. Then just did it again for about a half an hour about 2 weeks ago.

I've learned to just wait it out. It'll work right again when it feels like it...:p

If you make a short loop in the cord starting near the mouse and kneed the cord you may be able to locate the weak spot in the cable. You are bending the cord but not trying to fold it in half, more like a soft bend.

If you find the break you could splice the wire. There should be 4 wires like yellow black red green, you then have to locate which of the 4 is bad, it's a messy job but you could salvage for a spare.

My daughters mouse does that from time to time,its an older Azio mouse, the functionality & even the lighting just cuts out suddenly, then i wiggle the cord & all goes back to normal. This thread reminds me that it actually hasn't done this in a while, but I haven't repaired it, its weird.

Suspect the mouse itself, looks like the cable or internal parts

Two new mouses bought. If the problem returns you guys will be the first to know.

Well, actually the second to know, because I'll know first, won't I. But definitely the second....:D

Ruh roh....

Worked great for two days, now I'm getting mini-freezes this morning.

That can't be good...

Worse, I just unwrapped the second mouse I bought Thursday, same shit...

Uh, ok so I may be an idiot. In my defense, the dog woke me up way too early.

The fix..?? Turned my second monitor 'on'....

Begs the question," where is the mouse plugged into, the PC, a USB Hub or one of the Monitors?"

Also, are you installing specific mouse software/ drivers or letting Windows install generic mouse drivers?

Plugged into back of pc, in the slot usually used for mouse/keyboard.

I always have both monitors running, except this morning I did not. Once I turned the second monitor on, problem fixed itself.

Mind you, I don't think that is supposed to happen, but what are ya gonna do.

Uh, no image is duplicated on each screen. One is used as a 'tv', with streaming content(currently morning news for example) and/or media content from the computer.

For reasons that elude me for the moment, my monitor is listed as screen 2, despite being label as main display.
